Now, he could get back to his home back at Dreamflux Reef and settle in for the night. Orㅤ—ㅤstay up until ungodly hours of the night TINKERING with various gadgets. No wonder he was always tired at work. Maybe he should start going to bed EARLIER.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤSo lost in his thoughts that the child had been that he hardly even noticed the man until he SPOKE UP. The slightest jump escapes him before he quickly readjusts himself and gives the man a FRIENDLY smile.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤ❛ㅤOh ! Well, maybe ! But I DON'T mind ! I like talking to the Dreamchasersㅤ—ㅤand the extra money is nice ! So you don't have to worry about me, Sir !ㅤ❜

So, this was the magnificent Dreamscape he'd heard so much about.

The Golden Hour was... beautiful, honestly. The cascading signs, the bright shocks of neon, the mellow glow suffused the streets like rivers of gold while countless storefronts boasted their wares amid towering skyscrapers, roads buzzing with people and blitzing Spheroids. Were it not for his disapproval of what the Dreamscape did, he would've happily lingered there for quite some time. Yet, in exploring the glittering, gold metropolis, Clear appeared like a phantom from behind a crossing passerby and in Misha's view.

"...Aren't you a little young to be workin', kid?"

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤWHY was he so nervous ? He was a GYM LEADER after all; one of the eight that stood in the trainers' way of getting to the Champion cup ! Even if he lost ( which was just a thing that happened sometimes when one was a Pokemon trainer ), he was still pretty strong; he'd like to think.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤThe truth was; the BATTLES weren't even the scariest part. It was actually talking to the trainers and interacting with them.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤMaybe he should have ACTUALLY said ' Hello ' to the woman like a normal person. With the anxiety still gripping at him though; he continued to just stay quiet as she would begin to check in.

@indeliblepromise

It was her first time abroad! Her first time travelling away from Hoenn to see other regions and experience new sights, new pokemon. The culture here wasn't that different from her own, but it was very much a new experience for her.

Stepping out of the plane that brought her here, she stretched and rubbed her eyes. Jet lag...

Nanami wished she could've just flown here on Altaria, but that would've been too much for her poor pokemon. Too far a distance. Well, she was coming to witness the start of the gym challenge in Motostoke, so she heaved her bag up on her shoulder to head to the nearest hotel. Checking in was priority, then head over there.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤ❛ㅤOh ! Yes, you came to the Charmony Festival ! I'm really glad you were able to ENJOY itㅤ—ㅤeven with the complications.ㅤ❜

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤThis man was the one from the Intelligentsia Guild, right ! There was no doubt that he probably COULD teach him a lot of things. Now what HE could teach the man, he wasn't sure.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤ❛ㅤIf I didn't introduce myself before, my name is MISHA ! I - I'm not sure what I could teach you, but I'll do my best, sir !ㅤ❜

— "Huh. I remember you." Hands on his hips, he looks over the kid. He did have the resemblance to the Watchmaker indeed... quite a cute little one. A smile creeps up onto his face.

"I do hope I don't intimidate you. I believe we could teach eachother a thing or two." He did not take into consideration that the Express would have a new passenger... he should have brought the appropriate gifts.

Truly, all of it almost seemed completely outlandish ! She should have called the rest of the guards right in that very moment ! But surely, this man wouldn't have been that much of a FOOL. Getting more names involved would require far more verificationㅤ—ㅤand if even one person disproved any of his claims, it would have established him as UNTRUSTWORTHY even further.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤShe's heard of WILDFIRE at least. She didn't know much about the organizationㅤ—ㅤbut LADY BRONYA had spoken positively about the group after her experiences in the Underground. Of course, she would still have to check with every single person the man was listing off though.

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤAzure hues blink upon the offer the man gave her. All of those duties that he had spoken of WOULD benefit the Silvermane Guards. Yet, most of them were already covered by the Silvermane Guards themselves. Except . . .

˚ʚ ☾ ɞ˚ㅤ˗ˏˋㅤㅤ❛ㅤWell, I suppose you COULD help with delivery if you're truly as valiant and noble as you say. I'LL still have to accompany you though.ㅤ❜

     A  few  hasty  nods,  he  understands  that  out  of  anyone  involved  with  what  occurred  prior  to  the  loss  of  Cocolia,  he's  the  least  likely  to  be  believed  for  doing  anything  worthwhile  for  all  of  Belobog.  However,  one  could  argue  that  he's  helped  out  the  Underworld  plenty...  ❝  That's  fine  by  me.  Even  the  grassroots  group  down  below...  Wildfire  ?   They'd  be  able  to  put  a  word  or  two  in  for  me.  ❞   The  name  likely  means  nothing  but  if  one  were  to  venture  into  an  explanation  of  their  place  in  society  down  there,  they'd  be  heroes  too.  It's  a  little  wrong  for  him  to  take  advantage  of  such  status,  but  he  did  in  fact  lend  them  a  hand...  For  a  price.
